CeeLo faces real blow after questionable rape tweets
CeeLo Green was forced to bid farewell to The Good Life. And that's for both his celeb reputation and his TV series.
The reality-based docu-comedy television series, which stars the man himself along with other members of Atlanta-based hip-hop group, Goodie Mob, was cancelled by by TBS and Time Warner after it kicked off just two months ago.
This comes after he pleaded no contest on Friday (Aug 29) to one felony count of furnishing ecstasy to a woman during a 2012 dinner in Los Angeles, reported Billboard.
But that wasn't all. The 39-year-old singer-songwriter felt the need to take to Twitter to make his stance on the matter.

The Voice coach, who later deleted his posts, said: "Women who have really been raped REMEMBER!!!"
As he engaged with followers on the social media platform, he further reasoned: "If someone is passed out they're not even WITH you consciously! so WITH implies consent."
Soon, the star whose real name is Thomas Callaway, admitted to deleting posts when a fan asked about the vanished statements, said the publication.
Green said: "Yes I did. I will not allow that negative energy to loiter on my time line u still got it so keep it! I'm deleting this too".
